Muscle Mass and Body Composition

Completed

• Conditions: Muscle Loss

• Registration Number: NCT03184623
• Lead Sponsor: Medical Centre Leeuwarden

Brief Summary

ICUacquired weakness is a common complication of critical illness, particularly in patients receiving mechanical ventilation and/or suffering from conditions leading to the systemic inflammatory response syndrome.

The weakness and disability that result from these neuromuscular disorders can dominate the lont-term course and impede recovery.

In this observational study we try to measure muscle mass and body composition by echocardiography and BIVA at admission and on day 2, 5
